Losing touch sensitivity randomly and often - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone experience LOSS OF TOUCH SENSITIVITY intermittently during use?? I'll be scrolling through websites, or trying to highlight text in a PDF, and all of a sudden the touch will follow my finger or stylus only for a second or so before it loses the contact. The result is, for example, scrolling down a website and the touch is lost midway so it flings the screen down. From that point forward, the touch is lost UNTIL I KILL ALL APPS WITH A TASK MANAGER AND SHUT THE SCREEN OFF for a few seconds.
Upon turning it back on, the touch sensitivity is restored until another ten or fifteen minutes. And it happens over and over and over.
Anybody have any advice? Thanks so much in advance

I am using eos4 and have switched to many kernels and ROMs but have noticed the same. Do you happen to have the mz604? WiFi Xoom. I dropped and cracked the screen and though that would be why but noe I'm thinking otherwise. I notice after 10 mins of use it plays up but if I turn the screen off then back on its fine for a little longer. I think the crack in my screen makes it more frequent (possibly two different problems) did you experience this on honeycomb on stock of you ever had it?

Juice Defender feedback vote needed

To all G2x community,
I am having problems with juice defender, to be more specific whenever I hang up from a phone call there is a delay in the hang up process, usually takes 5 to 10 seconds after I press end call. The issue is posted on the Juice Defender feedback forum, and I just wanted to call on you guys to pump up the vote tally for this issue. So if you can, just click on the link and give it the max 3 votes I'd appreciate it.

Edit: Whoops.
I get the same problem, I also have a problem with WiFi calling constantly polling my phone as traffic even with WiFi disabled with the phone set as WiFi Calling on Enable/Screen Off.
I always wondered why there was a delay on hangup... Never knew it was a JD thing though. Hope they address it quickly
I don't use these types of apps, but a while back I noticed a new similar app in the market. I'm curious as to how it compares to Juice Defender, has anyone tried it? It's called Go Power Master (by the same devs who made GoSMS and Go Keyboard etc.)
Sorry if this is a thread hijack

Looks like the same idea... I may give it a shot as I use go launcher already and like their products (some of them)
Edit: That app is nowhere close to as customizable as juice defender and its ui is really ugly hahaa defiantly sticking with jd
Pin it to Win it.
Are you using a specific rom or just stock? I have ran into this issue with or without jd on certain roms (can't recall exactly such ones atm) but it may be a conflict also. I run jd on tsugi right now and use the 2g/3g since it still doesn't work radio wise with that version. But I have jd ultimate for the wifi capabilities, and have on all other roms for the past year and a half.
I have used certain roms along with certain kertain kernals without jd and had that issue though. I understand when its disabled things goto normal, so I guess are you running froyo, gb, 2.3.7 or ics?

I'm running Weapon G2x 3.0_R1 ROM with the stock kernel and using Juice Defender Plus.
I'm running stock firmware non-rooted with JD plus and getting delayed hangup.
JD is pointless, all it does is turn off data when the screen turns off and on when the screen is on. This can be done by the touch of a button easy.

Thing is i WANT the data to stay on even during screen off, its not like i have a lot of traffic going on 24/7 anyways, its gonna update stuff like facebook, messenger, email twitter etc only, which uses very little traffic anyways.
I tried to set it updating everything whenever i turn screen on and all it did was cause some minor lag whenever i unlock screen.....not a very good idea to me lol
And to the OP, juice defender actually made my battery WORSE.......it kept trying to close some background stuff for me and ended up using a lot more power than it should be. All you need to do is flash a better rom/kernel, underclock (and undervolt if your hardware allows it, mine doesnt but its good enough so it is fine on stock voltage underclocked).
I did a test recenly, exactly 20 hours and my battery stayed at 97% with very little activity, which I consider as very nice. The next day I used my pone for about an hour on talking, roughly 30minutes on games, and probably an hour for web browsing, and i still have 59% left at the end of the day
Regular battery too, i did not buy a powerful battery replacement.
So yeah SCREW JUICE DEFENDER!!!!
If you wanted data to stay on all the time, JD is completely useless to you. Seriously.

I've used JD Plus for well over a year. I'm really starting to think the app is hype. I see no major difference with it or with out it. Pointless.
If you read back some threads before on JD, you would find out that JD off the market (at least it still is) does not work on the G2X for some reason. You have to install a beta version of it that was linked on these forums a while back and use that.
The market version was not able to shut off data at all whereas the beta version does.
I was able to get about 27 hours before my battery depleted just on a new ROM and not having to UV/OC any settings. I still use it on my GB ROMs. Doesn't really work on the ICS ROMs.
I have had it for a long time, and noticed quite a bit of difference compared to without it. GB did change that until the beta. And with ics, it does work for me. I use it for the data shutoff + automated wifi enable/ disable. If I really need an email that I'm waiting for and can't miss that extra 5 min of duration that it takes, I turn it off. That's where I notice the major difference, especially with the newer kernels for ics builds. But obviously it doesn't seem to work as well for some people, or some people just don't like it. That's why theirs different versions of everything.

I'm giving this thing the bump!... I'm impressed with the votes, the vote total is in triple digits. We need some more votes to get this thing pushed through. It's the only thing that bugs me about JD right now, and I'm sure there are alot of people in the same boat.
http://feedback.latedroid.com/forum...ns/2257272-no-data-connection-while-on-phone-
Don't use it, it doesn't help.
For me the battery life on my settings was so good it decreased it due to my phone being woken up every 30 minutes.
This is my battery life on stock battery without JD

With JD I probably would've only gotten 18 hours.

I don't know if JD does drain battery a lot or not. But I always have trouble with it connecting to Mobile Data quickly. I unlock the screen, it shows the 4g icon plus the four white bars, but it's usually connected only when the bars turn blue. And it takes forever for the bars to turn blue, like a 10 second delay, any way to fix it?

[Q] Random vibrations and weak Wifi reading- sky ICS (4.1)A-3

Hello there everyone. I recently flashed seanzscreams sky ICS leak rom. Everything seems to be in working order.
However there are two problems for me at least:
1. The wifi indicator never indicates a strong signal even if I am standing right next to the router.
2. There are random vibrations occurring when the phone is asleep or when I unlock it to do something. I thought that this was just google music vibrating to tell me its switching songs, but It happens randomly as well as then.
Just wondering if anyone else is getting this issue, and if so, should I try re-flashing even though Im not getting and FC's. I will fix permissions and post results.
Phone stats:
Version: 4.0.3
Baseband: I727UCALC4
Kernel: [email protected]#1
Build number: SKy ICS 4.1A-3

I have the EXACT same problem. Both of them in fact...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
I believe it is due to any specific program that hasn't been optimized for ICS or the ROM itself, because I don't experience it, but I've heard of such problems on all ICS roms
I think it's from things force closing in the background.
I've been having the same issue, but I'm pretty sure it's due to the AOSP lockscreen. If you can tell Play Music glitches on the lockscreen and incorporates its self with Samsung locks screen. So definetely some sort of glitch going on.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
All of the ICS ROMs suffered from the same 2 things mentioned. My WiFi signals were much weaker than on any GB ROM unfortunately.
I removed AOSP lockscreen and am still getting the random vibrations. Mine seem to be coming from the CM9 music app.

Hey everyone, how about trying out a different kernel?
For me, I switched to Romracer's kernel for ICS and I have no random vibrations or apps FCing in the back ground. You can also try Mohan's kernel as it seems to be better suited for AT&T.
When flashing the kernel always do a nandroid, but wipe both cache and davlik (its under advance.) Then after the kernel flash is complete just let the phone sit for a couple of minutes to make sure that everything settles into memory properly.
Something else that I noticed yesterday, I was doing a ton of memory wipes, (taking screen shots for different themes...) but my data connection was patchy as hell. Random drops and disconnects even though I was in Downtown of my city. Any way long story short you just need to let your phone settle down its been about 12 hours since my last cache & davlik wipe and my data connection seems to be holding properly without any further adjustments.

[Q] tf101 reboot / shutdown when go to sleep - log files?

Hi,
please, apologize if that was covered somewhere, but I didn't feel like I found my case.
I've got Asus Transformer tf101 with 3G. Rooted, flashed with CyanogenMod 9 and then with the latest night builds a month ago - before that it was updated with the latest Asus firmware.
Every time the tablet go to sleep, when running from battery - it's either shutdown itself or reboot itself.
Tried: disabling WiFi, setting CPU limit to the highest, disabling lock screen, changing brightness, tried to check for the log files, but don't have any kmesg_last or anything else like that.
Could you, please, assist - at least with finding the log files to get an idea on what's wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
Welcome to the world of random reboots and sleeps of death. This is a common occurrence with a lot of folks on the TF101. The only things you can try is to either endure it or reflash/flash another rom. I'm on EOS 4 and I used to be on CM10 and have experienced both these issues on different releases of each rom. I've been on #101 of EOS 4 now and havent had any sleep or restart issues yet but time will tell.

Thanks, it's nice to be part of something... big! =)
Yeah, I'm already trying the EOS 4 - it seems to be at least a bit more stable and, apart from everything, it looks a bit better than the CM. Will keep testing - hopefully it will work.

Sudden lack of touchscreen responsiveness total system lag and now no boot

today all the sudden I pick up my TF 700 because been running fine and stable under Cromix 4.6 point 8 and all previous versions of this rom with no major issues and like top says my touch screen responsiveness with minimal system with completely lacking every which way you can after reboot and now it won't even boot past the Cromix startup logo so far to no avail I've tried restoring which doesn't seem to help I've tried clean install of four points 7 .0 and still nothing anyone had or heard of these issues would hope to think its just some minor glitch instead of something majorly wrong with my tablet or this ROM

Most stable, no-frills ROM?

I know this is a classic of a noob, but it's not for me. My mom is using this phone, and I'm currently running JellybeanDS (CM 10.2). It works, but there are times where it is unstable and the battery drains randomly.
So, I'm looking for the most stable, minimal bugs, no-frills (not a whole lot of customization options), ROM that will be good enough for just basic use.
I'm looking at the "official" CM 10.1 P21 from tbalden, but I'm not sure how stable that is. Also, KitKatDS, but I'm not sure how that behaves either.
I've been out of touch with ROMs on this device, which is why I'm asking you guys. Let me know any thoughts, thanks!

I am quite happy with Tbalden's CM 10.1. My bugs I've discovered:
- Screen goes black about once a week. Can be fixed by returning the CPU frequencies to stock (192min, 1296max), although I have recently had to bump the min up to 384 when I got a new battery.
- Some incoming calls I cannot hear the caller, and the caller cannot hear me. I think this is due to my SIM card (since it started happening after swapping.
- In web browser, the Shift and Alt Key's don't "lock", have to hold down the respective modifier to use special keys. No big deal.
- Don't know if it is this ROM or Fly-On mod I once had, but I have to reboot once or twice a week because the system slows down considerably when on for a prolonged period.
I've tried KitKatDS, and I've had the same bugs (except maybe the last, didn't hang around that long) plus random battery drain. So 10.1 I stuck with.
If the above continues to bother me, I would go back to MikTouch, which is a very viable choice (I just prefer to avoid Gingerbread these days).

ahh the black screen of death that's been plaguing this device forever. that's acceptable, given your fix.
the robotic call issue i remember well (what you described, and the fact that i can only hear random garbled robotic nonsense from the other party). that might be a dealbreaker, because she says she hasn't faced that at all on the current rom.
that's fine, she doesn't use the keyboard at all.
can't say i've heard of that one, but i'll keep it in mind.
thanks for the report on both!

I wouldn't call it robotic (at least what I get) as I don't hear anything. In fact, my provider does not even register the call as having been placed (which leads me to believe it's a SIM issue).
If I had tried 10.2 for longer, I imagine I would have the same issue.
MikTouch is modified stock, so a few extra tweaks on a solid base. It's just old in comparison.
Long time, no hear! I don't think it's changed in the interim - basic no frills surely still got to be Miktouch or SCVerhagens CM9.1.

Something I never tried. I did use CM 9.1 official for a while, but ditched it when I didn't see Corporate as a new account type (wanted to connect to work calendar/email). Not sure if SCVerhagen added that functionality. Or if Device<>PC file transfer (not the speed, as I hear that it was, rather the copy errors), and the Mobile Data toggle (can turn on data, but not off) in the notification bar got fixed (my two favourite bugs).
